There is actually an easier way to do this.

SuSE doesn't include /etc/rc.d/rc.local but it
does include /etc/rc.d/boot.local which performs
the same function.  Any commands put into boot.local
will execute when the system boots.

Subject: Re: [SLE] Two IP-addresses, one NIC


ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.1.2 broadcast 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
will always work, on any linux box
to get this on boot, put it in /etc/init.d/rc.local (if there is no
rc.local,
create one) and then do
chmod 700 /etc/init.d/rc.local
ln -s /etc/init.d/rc.local /etc/init.d/rc3.d/S99local

change 192.168.1.2 to whatever ip you want
